A class 195 DMU 195005 is ready to leave for Sheffield.


The British Rail Class 195 Civity is a class of diesel multiple-unit passenger train manufactured by CAF, owned by Eversholt Rail Group and currently operated by Northern Trains. The units were originally due to enter service in December 2018 alongside the Class 331 units, however, they were instead first introduced on 1 July 2019 under previous operator Arriva Rail North on the Manchester Airport and Liverpool Lime Street via Warrington, and Manchester Airport to Barrow-in-Furness routes. The introduction of new rolling stock for the Northern franchise was fuelled by the need to phase out the unpopular Pacer trains by 2020. LinkExternal link
Romiley railway station

Opened in 1862 by the Manchester Sheffield & Lincolnshire Railway, access to the two platforms is by steps from Stockport road, as the station is adjacent to the bridge over that road, immediately to the east. Immediately to the west is Romiley Junction.

Romiley is currently served by hourly trains from Manchester to Sheffield as well as all-stations local services to Marple, and to Rose Hill (running from Manchester via Guide Bridge).
